GM futurliner

[rctrucker2]

I was at Barrett Jackson last Wednesday and Thursday and saw the Futureliner up close. It only has room for 3 people in the top cab (driver sits in middle at front and 2 seats side by side behind). There are 2 horizontal doors in the middle. One folds down to form a floor of the stage and the other folds up. It is not a bus but more of a truck with a stage built in the middle. One of the most interesting features was the dual wheels on the steering axle. The wheels are mounted on special hubs that allow the outer wheel to turn faster than the inner wheel to steer around a corner.
